He further continued, "There's only one reason for the weight loss: I’ve adopted many things to improve my wellness in life. Toh main zinda hun aur zinda rahunga.

Sabke liye mere andar bhut saari kahaniyan baaki hain, unhe darshana baaki hai abhi (So I am alive, and I will continue to live. First, I want to tell all the netizens saying things—I want to live for many more years, especially for my kids. I still have many stories left within me to show the world)."
